Relay for Life hosts hybrid event to benefit American Cancer Society

Every year, Relay for Life of JMU hosts an annual relay event to benefit the American Cancer Society. According to the Relay for Life website, the money raised at these Relay for Life events goes toward funding cancer research, offering services to cancer patients and advancing health equity to ensure all patients have access to treatment.  This year the event was hosted in a hybrid format April 9. Whitney Minnick, a senior development manager with the American Cancer Society, said the event looked very different from years past.  “Prior to the pandemic, the Relay for Life of JMU event was a fully in-person event that took place on Hillside field,” Minnick said. “In 2019, we had over 1,400 participants in attendance. Last year, the event was fully virtual and took place on Facebook Live — this year was a mix between the two formats.”

SGA proposes a student legal service at JMU

Student Legal Services (SLS), which would provide free or reduced-price legal consultation to students and would educate the student body of its rights on and off campus, is SGA’s latest initiative at JMU.  Student Body President Dela Adedze first proposed this initiative to Vice President for Student Affairs Tim Miller in March 2020, and in September 2020 the SGA resolution was introduced. He has the approval of President Jonathan Alger, who Adedza said told him he loves the idea, as well as Board of Visitors member Christopher Falcon. “We definitely had a lot of administrative support as well as introduced it to faculty members who like the idea,” Adedze said. “It’s just been moving a little bit slowly.”
